Description:

The City of Kent is soliciting Statements of Qualification for the completion of a loop trail master plan from consultants experienced in similar projects.

This project will develop that idea into a master plan and propose options for phasing improvements.

The selected design team will be required to enter into a consultant agreement with the City of Kent and provide appropriate insurance and endorsements.
Submit eight (8) copies of the Statement of Qualifications (not to exceed 30 pages, excluding the cover letter). The required components of the SOQ are detailed in the Information Packet for this RFQ, available from the city’s procurement website: http://kentwa.gov/procurement/ .

Interested firms shall attend a mandatory pre-submittal site visit, to be held 1p.m. on March 19, 2013, at Foster Park. The park is located at South 259th Street and 74th Avenue South, Kent.
